FALLing for the Perfect Boots

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UVA chapter.

Ah, yes, autumn has stumbled upon us once again. It’s the time of year where everyone is buzzing about chunky scarves, scented candles, and the inevitable pumpkin spice latte. With fall festivities racing around our minds, we may forget about an essential of the season: boots! Wearing comfortable, trendy, and affordable boots can ultimately transform your fall style. Here are some of our faves this season!

 

1. Over The Knee Boots

Over the knee boots have the ability to dress up any outfit and are perfect for any occasion! Slip these bad boys on, and you instantly look like you’ve put loads of effort into your outfit, when, in reality, you simply slipped them on and walked out the door. Pair yours with a cute dress or some jeans and a sweater!
